Russell Brand took a much-needed break from filming for his TV show Ballers and took his wife and baby daughter for a stroll around Los Angeles.

The 42-year-old comedian and actor joined Laura Gallacher and their little girl Mabel for a walk around Beverly Hills, where he's been filming on location for the HBO series.

Shading his eyes with sunglasses and with his long hair tied in a man bun, Russell walked alongside Laura, 30, as she pushed 14-month-old Mabel in her green pram.

Russell removed his trademark leather jacket to get some sunshine on his yoga-honed arms, stripping down to reveal a tight black v-neck t-shirt that he paired with skinny jeans and white sneakers.

Laura, meanwhile, had donned a matching leather biker jacket with yellow stripes, which she wore with jeans and an on-trend rucksack.

The couple married in August 2017 in an intimate church service attended by plenty of celebrity guests, including Noel Gallagher, Jonathan Ross, David Baddiel and Laura's older sister Kirsty Gallacher.

Guests were treated to a paddle steamer ride up the Thames to their lavish India-themed reception near Henley-on-Thames in Oxfordshire.

Speaking about their life as a married couple on Loose Women, reformed lothario Russell said it came as a "relief" to be in a stable relationship after the madness of his earlier years.

"I wanted lots of attention [even when I was doing my comedy], but now in the back of my mind is my wife and my daughter," he confessed.

Russell, who was on the show to talk about his new book Recovery: Freedom From Our Addictions, said he was definitely cut out for life as a married man.

"I ran out of options with all of my addictions. It became clear that an ordinary life is the best," he went on.

"I really like it, it's such a relief to be married - to be home."

The couple, who briefly dated 10 years ago before splitting and getting back together, were engaged for 14 months before tying the knot.

Laura is Russell's second wife, after his short marriage to US singer Katy Perry.

They welcomed their daughter Mabel in November 2016, with Brand rushing out of his stand-up gig when he got the news Laura had given birth.

And the actor and comedian said today that life as a father suits him - even though it comes with its own difficulties.

"I have calmed down. Being a daddy is part of it, because I'm knackered all the time," he joked.
